bench lands and prairies the coming spring.
This wheat farming is designed to show
to the skeptical that the table lands and
prairies Of this part Of Northern Montana
are capable of producing large yields OF
wheat without irrigation. This expert
mental work was commenced the present
season, but owing to a drouth almost I'M
parelled in the history Of the country, the
yield per acre is small, averaging OF old
ground from - to is bushels to the acre.
Although this yield appears to the Mon
tana farmer a complete failure; it is con
siderably more than the average yield of
wheat in Minnesota the past year. We
shall watch these experiments Of the town
site company with much interest. We I'M
derstand that they are to be continued for
several years.

Experienced parties have made arrange
ments to establish an extensive nursery for
shade trees adjacent to the townsite. They
will not only sow a large quantity Of seeds
of the Elm, Eastwood, Broad Leaved Cot
tonwood, Maple, etc, but will ship from
nurseries in Minnesota and Michigan a
very large number Of seedlings. We IN
derstand it Will be the policy of the town
site company to encourage the planting
and careful cultivation of commentaries
With the extensive waterworks which
they will soon establish for the benefit of
Great Falls the townsite will before long
be transformed from its present condition
to a forest of shade trees. The townsite
company have already themselves planted
many hundred trees, and have also SHIPPED
from the east, a large number of Ameri-
can and English Elms, to be planted along
the avenues after attaining one or two
years further growth in the nursery.

The Park hotel continues to be well pat
ronized, its business being far beyond what
the proprietor Mr.. Ehrhart supposed it
could be the present winter. 1t is now
evident that the present capacity will be
entirely inadequate the coming season to
meet the wants of the public. So appar-
ent has this become, that the proprietors
have decided to extend the Park frontage
an additional one hundred feet. This adj
dition is to be two stories in height, with
basement for laundry and steam heating
purposes. When this addition is COM
pleted the hotel will then have ninety
sleeping rooms and a veranda 250 feet in
length.

French and English Ari,tocracy.

In spite of it's incapacity for leadership Tn democratic age, l think the French aristOcracy has, on one or two points. preserved more of the purely aristocratic las distinguished from the plutocratici sentiment than the British To become poor, even moderately poor. in England Is Co lose caste. tO become rich Is tO ac- quire caste, and his is the sign that the aristOCratic sentiment about ancestry has given place Co the plutOcratic senti- ment about wealth.
 Those who really belong tO the French nOblesse are in no danger of losing their birthright of GristOCratic consideration for any degree Of poverty that does not make decent appearance impossible and that does not compel them 10 engage in some money earning occupation. The gentry and their descendants have no prejudice against decent aristocratic poverty, and they have the genuine old aristOcratic prejudice against work. They despise all wealth that is not in herited and value only the results of the lCbors of the dead Even literature and the fine arts become degrading as soon as they are lucrative, a sentiment quite Op- posed Co The general modern opinion in France. All the forms of trade are de- spicablc for aristocrats, and when they hear Ot a family that has been in trade they say, with an air of genteel ignor- ance about the nature of the business, Ills ont vendu quelque chose.

THE tale published in Democratic journals to the effect that certain Re- publican chiefs have made arrange ments to execute flank movement on the Democrats and capture some of the southern states, is undoubtedly one Of the snti-eleotion csnards which will be- come more and more plentiful as No- vember. 1888, approaches. Such scheme, in the present state of the public mind in the south, would not be very difficult to accomplish, The apresd of manu- tacturing in the southern states ID the past three or four years has created 8 tariff sentiment in that section which is ominous to tbe Bourbons The figures of the congressional elections last fall, when the republicans made no speclel efforts to win, demonstrate that a big break can be made in the ranks of the Democracy Tn the south whenever the Republicans make serious attempt to bring 1t about. Virginia snd West Vir- glnia can certainly be carried by the Republicans next year if that party makes an intelligent effort to do it, and North Carolina and Tennessee can be made so doubtful that the Democrats will be compelled to exert themselves 10 hold them.

WHEN the dead body of the unknown Scandinavian girl, recently found mur- dered at Railway, New Jersey, awaited Identification at the morgue, over one hundred and twenty people went there to view the remains, who were in grief for missing ones. One hundred and twenty sad hearts looking down on one dead face to see If it was not their own lost darling that had died by her betray- CTS hand. One hundred and twenty daughters and sisters missing from so many homes, Oetrsys a measure of im- morality-a rottenness of society in lit tle New Jersey and contiguous states, that is almost without the bound of pos sibility CT comprehension in the west. That such things can be IS astounding, but that they are has by death of vic tim, been proven beyond persdventure. How many others there were among the throng that gszed on the white and mutllated face and turned away without making their sorrows known, can never bs told.

4 rerlcan Rarber shop.

I advise American gentlemen who visit this country Co bring their TazOrs wltt them-uOt for use in defense of life CT limb. but tO save a great deal of painful personal writhing under the manipula lions of s0-called barbers. There are very few tonsOrial artists in Mexico, especially in the smaller towns and cities. The or dinary barber's chair here is very primi tive, uncushiOned wooden affair with arms. sometimes with a head rest. anc sometimes with nothing for the head but the barber's hand. After you sea yourself into the chair, with your feet or the floor. or dangling, according tO the height of the chair and the length of your legs there IS rarely a foot rest. yOu barber will go tO box, which by it's ap pearance and the sound when he puts his hand inside you will imagine is a car penter's tool chest.
 He will draw forth an article. fin ap pearance like a razor. but in feelinc-as you will soon learn-m0re like a pair Of pincers.
 You will now pass th-ou~h an expert ence in comparison with which an huuI in Q dentists chair is cnjuymtut. After this instrument of torture has done its terrible work and it has been put back Ir the tool chest; then is the time for you tC keep yOur eyes shut, for before you have recovered your breath and your comD0s- ure your prosecutor will suddenly. and without warning blow from an atOm.ZcI over your face and neck liquid whicl you will feel sure is aqua fOrtis pure and unadul crated.

SATURDAY, MAY, IA. 1887.

TIE whole labor system of the United States is honeycombed with distrust Of capital and permeated with dissstisrsc- tion at its own condition, Wherever are to be found the rsmificstions Of the Knights of Labor, labor troubles are to be toupd also. No branch Of industry can be found beyond the pale of dissen- lions. Butchers, bakers, timers and ta,lors all have their grievances, thelr lock-ups snd rslk-outs. It IS the Iron moulder to-day, the wood worker to- morrow. The call of the walking dele gate is more potent than the cry of want. Character and individuality are lost in the seething whole. No man whatever be his capabilities, acquire mepts or necessities is priyeleged to market his labor. This IS done for him by others, not ss an individual but as 8 whole. The dull incompetent rises to the same plane with the intelligent and educated. This of itself will eventually disrupt any organization. Already their dissentions are many. but while they quarrel, commerce suffers. Here the walking delegate rises to the occa- sion, the tenure of his fat office IS short ened by every internal bresch, with or without cause, a pretext is found for B conflict with capital, and labor is order ed in arms against it. The walking delegate thus secures alesse on what the Irishman defined to be the situation Of n bishop. a good fst Risy job"

''Talk about Egyptian rmbaiminr. '" said a Chicago undertaken. Why. it don't compare with what we dOnowadavs
 Those old Egyptians didn't know what art was in the profession of undertaking
 There is too much nonsense afoat about the lost art of embalming as practiced bv the Egyptians. In the first place their climate is of kind to preserve dead ami nal tissue whether it is embalmed or not lt is very dry in Egypt and the temperature is even. The bOasted mun. mics of Egypt are simply dried up spcci- mems ot skin and bones To-day we can ernoalm a body 30 that it will preserve The fullness and hue of life, and it will never dry up at all. If the modern pro- cess Of einbalming had been known to the ESyptlans Of several thousand years. those old kings who were laid away in the pyramids for us mOderns to look at ihstead or presenting the appearance of tanned leather would have the kinclv dignity Of form and feature which was theirs when their bodies were laid awav Tor the last long sleep.

WE elsewhere publish letter from J o. Gsrcis, confined in prison st Sshusr. ips, Sonora, Mexico. If he be sn Amer icsn citizen ss claimed, and is in prison Rs charged, the authorities should not only demand his release but that repRr- stion be made for the iudIgnity heaped upon him. Not alone upon him but upon every citizen of the United States. To imprison an American citizen be cause of his refusal to violate the law IS is new offense in the decalogue of crime and known only to the petty ty. rants that under the name of prefect, rule the occupants of few mud huts and wickiups misnsmed towns, But ID a foreign county sn American citizen has no rights. There is nothing in him or about him that any foreign scrub has B need to respect. Our government is like big, blnbberIng booby that out side of his own family can not call his soul his own.

THERE promises 10 be no scarcity of bidders for the county bonds. as sppli- cation for copies of the Funding Law have been made from capitalists ID near ly all the great cities east and west Possibly forty copies have been mailed Co the various enquirers. The bonds will be sold on sealed proposals, with the re- served right vested in the Treasurer to re- ject any snd all bids, and not st auction, as some of the enquirers seem to think they will be. There is Rn idea preval ent here, that the bonds covering the indebt- edness subsequent to July Both, 1886, will not be taken. Those again, who have examined into the law, feel assured that as an investment the S50,000 bonds will prove both profitable and safe, and will Rs readily find sale at full market value, as will the bonds covering the time prior to the date named. All the bonds are good as law and money can make them, and there will be no lack Of anxious and eager purchs ssers.
